Approved Site Application

Any potential user should ensure, in consultation with the manufacturer, that the monitoring system
is suitable for the intended application. For general guidance on monitoring techniques refer to the
Environment Agency Monitoring Technical Guidance Notes available at www.mcerts.net

On the basis of the assessment and the ranges required for compliance with EU Directives this instrument is
considered suitable for use on waste incineration and large coal-fired combustion plant applications. This CEM
has been proven suitable for its measuring task (parameter and composition of the flue gas) by use of the QAL
1 procedure specified in EN14181, for LCPD/IED Chapter III and IED Chapter IV applications for the ranges
specified. The lowest certified range for each determinant shall not be more than 1.5X the daily average
emission limit value (ELV) for IED Chapter IV applications, and not more than 2.5X the ELV for IED Chapter
III and other types of application.

The field test was carried out over a period of 4 months and 10 days in the exhaust gas of a coal
fired power plant upstream of desulphurization.

 Description

The AMS Codel GCEM 40 Series is an IR analyser; it uses an insitu probe set into the flue gas duct
or stack to measure the emission levels of the selected gases within the flue gas. The probe includes
a measurement cell that allows flue gas to diffuse into the optical measurement path of the analyser.
A transceiver unit mounted on the probe transmits a beam of infrared energy down the probe through
the measurement cell to a reflector that directs the beam back to the transceiver. Analysis of the
received energy beam by NDIR technology provides a continuous measurement of the levels of the
selected emissions within the flue gas.
